John Hall, age 74, passed peacefully surrounded by loved ones on June 3, 2025 at St. Elizabeth's in Shiloh, IL. He was born on December 18, 1950 in Hindman, KY to Helen Gayheart Hall and Herbert Hall.John had an unparalleled personality and was best known for bringing smiles to those around him. He undoubtedly touched countless lives with his warmth and genuine ability to connect with others. In 1969, John enlisted in The United States Army where he served as a medic in the Vietnam War from January 1969 to May 1971.


John found much joy in traveling and nature; often spending his days outdoors, camping, fishing, and kayaking across much of the United States. Much of his youth was spent on the banks of the Wabash River in Indiana. He also enjoyed the simple things in life; playing cards, watching reality TV, creating art, and spending time with his family and pets. Many would recognize him later on in life by his tie dye prosthetic legs; which he received a lot of attention over.


We will always remember John's kind-hearted soul and the positive profound impact he had on our lives.
